First of all Happy Christmas everyone. I know it’s not Merry Christmas, but the thought’s the same. I just prefer the way it sounds. All of the family visits were done early this year. So the last celebrations were this morning between my brother and myself. I got my brother a Dr. Who coffee mug, an Apple gift card, and a couple of other things. My brother gave me a gift card to Target, Wally World, and Dominos. They are appreciated.
I was able restart one of my Christmas traditions from the past last night. I used to watch the Midnight Mass from St. James Cathedral on TV every Christmas Eve. And then a couple of years ago, I flipped the TV on, and it was just the Mass service from the Vatican. Last week, on a hunch, I went to the archdiocese website and discovered that they just stream it now. So I streamed the service.
And it really isn’t a holiday without an early morning 7-11 run. I wanted to get some tacquitos to surprise my brother with his presents, but he wanted just a breakfast sandwich. And they hadn’t filled the hot case yet when I got there, so it was a moot point.
So, thus concludes my holidays this year. I’m skipping New Years’ as I have to work New Years Eve and Day (and it really isn’t worth it when you hit your 50’s anyway). A few more minutes’ of football, and then I’m off to bed to get ready to go back to work tonight…..
